Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

3x - y = 18

y = 27

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Substitute in y:                     3x - 27 = 18
  2. Isolate x term:                      3x = 45
  3. Isolate x:                               x = 15

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - y = 18

Insert the value of y in the equation.

3x - 27 = 18

Shift -27 to the other side of the equation.

3x = 18 + 27

3x = 45

x = 45 ÷ 3

x = 15

So please check if your options and the equation are correct.
